This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 252: My sister has a good foundation. If she dresses up well, she will definitely be a beauty.
Bang!
Guan Yan violently opened the laboratory door and pushed away the researcher who was blocking his way. The robotic arm flashed red light and smashed the glass container with one punch, pulling out Xiang Yuan who was still unaware of the impending disaster.

The alarm bells are ringing!

"Come with me, it's not safe here."

Guan Yan led Xiang Yuan all the way out of the laboratory. When they encountered obstacles along the way, they punched them open without saying a word.

After leaving the laboratory gate, Guan Yan glanced in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion. He had a premonition in his heart, and fled along the outer edge of the metal wall with Xiang Yuan.

"Big sister, where are we going?"

"Let's talk about it someplace safe."

Before encountering the explosion and fire, Guan Yan was full of curiosity about the civilian areas outside the central area. As a young lady full of energy and kind-hearted, she tried to sneak across the border every day to deliver some supplies within her ability to the suffering people in the civilian areas.

When the metal door was impassable, she gradually figured out how to use the sewer.

With this skill, she, who was a civilian employee at the time, managed to lead the city guards who came to look for her to get lost in the sewers.

Guan Yan picked up Xiang Yuan and jumped into the sewer. The two walked quickly on the wide iron mesh passage. Due to years of disrepair, there was a constant squeaking sound of rust breaking under their feet.

"Big sister, how come you are so familiar with the sewers in the central area?"

Xiang Yuan started thinking and quickly imagined a scenario of a pioneer rebellion. Guan Yan endured humiliation and secretly accumulated strength. She didn't want to be trampled underfoot all her life, so she secretly returned to the central area countless times, starting from the sewers, and figured out the central area's city defense layout clearly.

She has been enduring for twenty years. She wants to fight for her place, not to prove how great she is, but to tell everyone that she will take back what she has lost with her own hands.

That's how it should be!

Xiang Yuan nodded repeatedly. A real man should have a wife, so how could he be depressed... Bah, a real man lives in this world, so how could he be depressed and live under someone else for a long time? He should have rebelled against his mother long ago.

Today he will accompany Guan Yan to break into the City Lord's Mansion and seize the throne. Then the City Lord's Mansion will belong to Guan Yan, and the relic will belong to him, and everyone will have a bright future.

"I grew up in the Central District and am very familiar with it. In the past 20 years, the Central District has not changed much..." Guan Yan explained slowly.

"So that's it."

Xiang Yuan curled his lips. The script was too realistic and there was no expectation at all.

Wait a minute!
Rich people, parents killed, sewers...

It's you, Batman!

After running for about twenty minutes, Guan Yan slowed down and said slowly: "First of all, congratulations on becoming a perfect Qiyuan-level transformer. You are very lucky that the suffering in the civilian area did not damage your talent."

"If that's the case, why should I run? Could it be that the big sister is jealous of my talent and took me to the sewer, intending to kill me without anyone knowing?" Xiang Yuan's eyes widened.

The effect was average. Guan Yan had no sense of humor and said truthfully: "You are too good. The city lord can't tolerate you."

"I don't understand. I am a part of the dungeon and a subject of the city lord. The stronger the dungeon is, the stronger the city lord is. He should be happy." Xiang Yuan looked so innocent, almost as pure as Zener who was playing dumb.

Guan Yan shook his head slightly and told the reality of the dungeon: "Having said that, being too good is a sin, especially when no one protects you."

The perfect Qiyuan level is a privilege of the nobility, or to be more precise, it is part of the city lord's power and prestige.

There are too many things involved. To put it simply, it is like creating a god. Only the Wang family, to which the city lord belongs, has the perfect adaptability to genetic modification. All other people are born with humble blood and are destined to crawl on the ground and look up to the gods.

There is only one God and he cannot be challenged!

Guan Yan did not comment on this. If he had to say something, in the wasteland world, a high and mighty god was definitely better than a chaotic situation with the world being torn apart and surrounded by mountains.

Based on the few words his parents said before they died, Guan Yan had guessed that the Wang family had more advanced genetic modification technology, which was safer and more stable than the genetic modification fluid used by civilians and even aristocrats.

If you are a little bolder, you will realize that the explosion twenty years ago was also a struggle for power.

After listening to Guan Yan's story, Xiang Yuan thought to himself that it was indeed the case, and asked curiously: "Since the big sister knew everything, why didn't she resist? Why didn't she expose the city lord's true identity?"

"Order is more important. A stable order is what everyone expects, and... no more people can die." Guan Yan said in a low voice.

"So, you took the initiative to become a pioneer, not to accumulate strength for revenge, but to find materials to repair the formation. You think that a complete formation is what the city lord needs and will be more conducive to the city lord's rule. He will be happy to see it happen and will not stop you?" Xiang Yuan asked back.

Guan Yan didn't say anything, he did have this lucky mentality.

Of course, it also has something to do with a kind character.

The struggle for power between the Guan family and the Wang family resulted in the destruction of the great formation, bringing countless blood and tears to the civilian area. Guan Yan was in the center of the explosion but luckily survived. Feeling that he had sinned greatly, he ran around alone, trying every possible way to make up for it.

The past can no longer be undone, but at least we can give an explanation to the future.

Guan Yan was silent for a long time, and then he said hoarsely: "When the city lord receives the news, he will definitely send people to capture you. In a few days, you will die of genetic collapse due to transformation failure..."

"The most dangerous place is the safest place. They thought I took you to the civilian area, so they will definitely increase the search efforts. So we stay in the central area..."

"After a while, when the news spreads and you show up again, many nobles will come forward to recruit you. The city lord will not dare to make a big fuss due to their power. Then you will be safe."

"It's well-reasoned and convincing, but..."

Xiang Yuan nodded in agreement, then changed the subject: "Big sister, I feel like my body is full of parawa, it's terrifyingly strong. I can kill a small jerk like the city lord with one punch. I'm so strong, why should I hide? They should be the ones to go into the sewers."

"When you suddenly gain power, you will have this illusion."

“Is there a possibility that this isn’t an illusion?”

"maybe."

Guan Yan was almost 40 years old, and she didn't want to bicker with the young, nor was she interested in arguing. She coaxed Xiang Yuan for a while, and then said, "In the next few days, I will teach you how to control the energy in your body. Then you will know whether it is an illusion or not."

As she finished speaking, she seemed to have realized something and raised her hand to block Xiang Yuan behind her.

Dense footsteps were heard from the front and back. More than ten barrier-breaking city guards blocked the retreat route, led by two Qiyuan-level deputy captains.

Guan Yan's heart skipped a beat, not understanding why her whereabouts were revealed. Fortunately, there were only two deputy captains, and if she tried hard, she could lead Xiang Yuan out of the siege.

Not two, but three.

There is also a Qiyuan-level enhancer!
Xiang Yuan's perception is far superior to Guan Yan's. He notices the secretly prying eyes, but pretends not to know and hides behind Guan Yan, weak and helpless.

Not to mention, Guan Yan, who is 1.8 meters tall, is almost catching up with him.

"Enhancer Li Xianyuan, the city lord wants to see you."

"Guan Yan, this has nothing to do with you, get out!"

The two vice-captains approached one after the other.

Twenty years ago, they were Guan Yan's admirers and part of the army of bootlickers. They fantasized about Guan Yan becoming the city lord's wife and themselves becoming the chief of the guards in the city lord's mansion, so that they could have the opportunity to have sex with her.

The city lord's wife and the guard leader, the city lord is not at home, lonely and cold, help warm up the scene...

If it is based on facts and not hearsay, it won't be wrong.

Today, twenty years later, because their dream lover was disfigured and a lowly civilian, the two men handled their business impartially and showed no mercy when they started fighting.

Guan Yan has been running on the front line of the pioneers for many years and has extremely rich combat experience. He glanced at the two deputy captains who were walking one after the other with his one eye, reached out and held Xiang Yuan in his arms, and launched a breakout forward before the encirclement was completely formed.

Gunfire rang out, and dense bullets formed a crossfire network.

Guan Yan's body was flashing red, and the spherical shield protected himself and Xiang Yuan. His agile figure was as fast as lightning, and his mechanical arm made a low buzzing sound. His five fingers were put together, and the red light blade chopped down.

The deputy captain in front felt the heavy pressure coming towards him, but instead of retreating, he advanced, also putting his five fingers together, and his mechanical arm quickly condensed a knife light. With a flash of red light, he blocked the attacking Guan Yan.

Just by looking at the appearance of the robotic arm and the speed of energy transmission, it can be seen that the city guards have the upper hand in equipment.

The actual combat effect is completely the opposite.

Guan Yan's movements were quick and decisive, without any unnecessary delay. Each of her strikes was honed to perfection, precise and deadly, and she overwhelmed the deputy captain in just one encounter.

After three moves, the energy in his body exploded, and the red light blade suddenly chopped down. The deputy captain's energy shield shattered instantly, turning into countless light spots and dissipating in the air.

The deputy captain at the back accelerated his sprint, his mechanical arm spiraled, and a red spear stabbed out, hitting Guan Yan's energy shield, creating circles of red light ripples.

The pure energy collided, causing the surrounding air to vibrate along with ripples.

Guan Yan's body was as fast as a swimming fish. He swung sideways to dodge the light gun, creating a flaw. He waited for the deputy captain behind him to approach, then chopped him down with his palm like a knife, smashing him heavily to the ground.

Large cracks appeared on the cement wall, and gravel was flying everywhere.

Guan Yan pressed down with one arm, and the dark red laws of heaven and earth converged and transformed into a blood-red long sword, which merged with her heavy punch, breaking the energy shield. The tip of her fist was wrapped in red light, pressing down the deputy captain's mechanical arm.

boom!
The deputy captain was buried in the concrete wall, spitting blood, and kicking his legs a few times before he had no strength to fight anymore.

Despite the generation gap in equipment, lack of energy, being attacked from all sides, and having Adou in his arms... despite so many unfavorable factors, Guan Yan was still able to gain an overwhelming advantage against the odds. This is the opposite representative of numerical victory and a highly technical player.

He was clearly a civilian staff member who had never received any systematic combat training, but after his job change, he developed a fierce fighting style and extremely powerful combat capability. He beat up two deputy captains of the city guards, easily gained the upper hand, and rubbed them however he wanted.

Not only that, but Xiang Yuan was also tucked under his arm.

To the far:)`)
It’s so hard, big sister, do you have a steel plate in your chest? Technology and hard work are not allowed!
The deputy captain in front was frightened by Guan Yan's amazing fighting power. He had been on guard in the central area for many years and thought he was very strong. However, when he met a powerful man who had emerged from a sea of ​​blood and corpses, his weaknesses of lack of combat experience and average ability to withstand pressure were immediately exposed.

The deputy captain is very good at fighting with the wind in his favor. When faced with an unfavorable situation, he follows his heart and kneels down immediately when he sees his colleagues, and orders his men to open fire with full force.

This move cannot break Guan Yan's shield, but it can accelerate the consumption of energy in her body.

Guan Yan held up the energy shield and ran far and backward, charging forward all the way, knocking away the obstacle-breaking city guards one by one in the hail of bullets.

She tiptoed on the ground, breaking up sections of the iron mesh passage, and moved forward in a circuitous manner in the sewer. She stopped panting five minutes later.

"The city guards can find me. The sewers are not safe. Let's go to the civilian area."

Guan Yan's eyes were filled with worry. If possible, she didn't want to bring trouble to the suffering civilian areas. It was already difficult to survive there, and they didn't deserve any more disasters.

But when she looked at Xiang Yuan's ignorant face, she couldn't bear it.

This child doesn't understand anything, he is innocent.

"Big sister, I suspect your robotic arm has been installed with a locator. The final right of interpretation belongs to the manufacturer." Xiang Yuan reminded.

"Maybe, but I can't lose it now..."

Guan Yan was filled with despair. She was under great pressure to fight against the City Lord's Mansion alone. If Xiang Yuan's guess was true, there would be no place for her in the underground city. She gritted her teeth and said, "Go to the surface. I'll prepare some supplies and leave immediately."

At this moment, a figure approached silently, and the moment it approached Guan Yan, a strong red energy wave suddenly burst out.

Guan Yan's one eye flashed with a sharp light, and he pushed Xiang Yuan away with one hand. His mechanical arm flipped behind him, and his heavy fist was wrapped in red light, and a brilliant light blade swept down.

The man who came was burly, with an intact body and no mechanical prostheses. One of his arms was emitting red energy. The moment he blocked the light blade, he stretched out his five fingers, grabbed Guan Yan's mechanical arm, and with a push and a pull, he removed the mechanical arm.

Guan Yan was horrified and hurriedly blocked Xiang Yuan and pressed him against the concrete wall, with one hand in front of him, emitting a faint red light.

She recognized the big man in front of her, Pei Jin, the captain of the city guard, the strongest Qiyuan-level warrior in the dungeon, and a perfect genetically modified adaptor. The Pei family he belonged to was also one of the best among the nobles.

"This is an old model from ten years ago. It has too many weaknesses. You should invest more in yourself." Pei Jin took out the energy battery from the robotic arm and threw it aside.

Pfft!
The batteries fell into the sewage, and the fighting spirit of the geese also sank to the bottom.

Pei Jin smiled slightly, stepped on the mechanical arm, and tapped the headset: "Guan Yan, the city lord wants to see you, give up resistance and come with me obediently!"

Guan Yan had no desire to fight back against the dungeon's number one strongman, but surrender was out of the question. She took a deep breath and said, "I can go to the City Lord's Mansion with you. This child's future has just begun..."

"Hey, what kind of quality is this? Throwing batteries around will pollute the environment. The environment in the dungeon is already bad enough. Hurry up and go down and pick it up." Xiang Yuan interrupted angrily.

"..." x2
The tense atmosphere faded instantly and became down-to-earth all of a sudden.

Guan Yan couldn't help but ask herself, for a silly guy like Xiang Yuan who didn't even know how to read the atmosphere when speaking, does he really have a future?
Pei Jin's eyes twitched, and his master's demeanor disappeared completely. He glared at Xiang Yuan fiercely.

Then he was glared back at by Xiang Yuan.

"..."

Pei Jin was silent for a moment and no longer paid attention to Xiang Yuan. Red threads spread out from his body and spread over the wall. He moved like a poisonous snake, or like a spider weaving a web, trapping his prey in a desperate situation.

"I haven't been to the Central District for twenty years. I can't believe that your Pei family has also surrendered to the city lord." Guan Yan led Xiang Yuan to slowly retreat, holding up an energy shield to block the red spider silk from entanglement.

"Times have changed!"

Pei Jin sighed, and his figure flashed, leaving behind an afterimage and disappearing on the spot.

When he appeared again, he appeared behind Guan Yan, his five fingers wrapped in a spiral red light, piercing through the energy shield and grabbing towards Yuan's neck.

Guan Yan seemed to be prepared. He swept his arm across, using the momentum of turning to accelerate, and his palm blade was wrapped in red light to block Pei Jin's sneak attack.

Pei Jin grabbed Guan Yan's wrist and put a silver bracelet on her with a click.

The entire bracelet is made of metal and has a simple energy display screen on the surface, with a faint red light flickering.

The moment she put on the bracelet, Guan Yan felt the energy in her body rapidly dissipating, and even the laws of heaven and earth could not sense it. Her face suddenly changed, and she seemed to realize something, and was about to explode the little energy she had left all at once.

Energy is filling, the bracelet shows, two percent charged.

Guan Yan was stunned for a moment. Times have really changed.

"It's the Wang family's latest product, a built-in energy absorber. Not many people in the central area know about it. You've always been in the civilian area, so you probably haven't heard of it." Pei Jin explained kindly, and seeing Xiang Yuan's curious look, he gave him a pair of silver bracelets.

Super double!
Xiang Yuan put on the silver bracelets on both hands. As if attracted by magnetism, he put his hands together. He struggled cautiously for a while and thought to himself that it was amazing.

This bracelet is great, I feel like you can play with it in many different ways.

Seeing that the dying man had no consciousness and was still studying the handcuffs, Pei Jin shook his head and said to Guan Yan: "Is this the person you want to save? If there is a future, remember to open your eyes and save some people who are worth saving... At least have a brain, this is really stupid."

Guan Yan stood there with a wry smile, giving up struggling completely.

The city guards arrived late and escorted Xiang Yuan and Guan Yan forward in the sewer. After the city lord came to power, the central sewer was transformed into his shape, and there were several secret passages connecting to the city lord's mansion.

Looking to the far east and the west, I walked through the secret passage into the City Lord's Mansion, and was attracted by the magnificent luxury here. I was more certain that the City Lord was the final boss.

That being said, is this appropriate?

The boss is introduced at the very beginning of the plot. It would be hard to even make a 60-minute movie, let alone a TV series.

Are you sure you don't want to add some water? Learn from TV screenwriters. A plot that can be filmed in one episode, but you have to add a few side plots?
It's a wasteland world now, why don't you unfold the map of the surface? There are obviously settings for mutated monsters, it would be a pity if you don't use it.

Also, what about the setting of the Pioneer Team? A team of more than a dozen people, with more than a dozen undercover agents sent by the city lord. That’s not too much, right?
These can all be water!

Xiang Yuan murmured in his heart that since he entered the wasteland, there have been no waves or twists and turns, not even a beautiful woman who could catch his eye. It was really too dull.

On the second floor of the City Lord's Mansion, Pei Jin pushed Xiang Yuan and Guan Yan into the spacious floor-to-ceiling window office, kicked them again, forced Guan Yan to kneel, and then kicked Xiang Yuan again...

No need to make up for it, Xiang Yuan has already sat down cross-legged.

You cooperate!

Pei Jin chuckled, walked out of the office, and stood outside the door alone.

He knew a lot of secrets about the city lord, but he wanted to protect himself and didn't want to know more.

In front of the floor-to-ceiling window, a figure was sitting behind a huge luxurious desk. The face could not be seen clearly due to the backlight, and a large shadow was cast, giving a very oppressive feeling.

At least that's what Guan Yan thought. Knowing that today was the day she would die, the heavy burden that had been suffocating her was lifted, and she felt a lot more relaxed.

Xiang Yuan tilted his head to look at the city lord, who was about thirty or forty years old, well-dressed and sanctimonious, which fitted his stereotype of a villain. Just as he was about to say something insulting, an unpleasant voice came from the side.

"Cousin, long time no see."

A woman in a red evening gown walked slowly over, her high heels making no sound on the carpet, and the hem of her skirt swayed gently like flowing water, outlining her figure gracefully and elegantly.

A very beautiful woman with a cool face and noble temperament.

The city lord’s wife, Guan Ling.

Judging from her red lips and her long hair tied up, we can tell that Guan Ling dressed up carefully. The neckline of her evening dress was very low, and the pearl necklace was very white and round. The neckline on the back was even lower, passing the waist and almost reaching the strands of hair.

Guan Ling walked forward with a fragrant breeze, and seeing Guan Yan with his eyes closed and not saying a word, he smiled and bent down to pull off his blindfold, revealing an eyeball without eyelids and a pale lens.

Xiang Yuan: (a)
The food provided by the city lord is really good.

"Oh, cousin, this face is so beautiful. You don't know how much I envy you."

Guan Ling smiled brightly, lifted up Guan Yan's curvy chin, and said in amazement: "Sister, you have a good foundation. If you dress up well, you will definitely be a beauty. Are you using the cosmetics that I gave you?"

What a vicious woman!

Xiang Yuan frowned and looked away. He was a mysophobe, and looking at a vicious woman like Guan Ling would only cause physical discomfort.

"yue~~"

Xiang Yuan said he was feeling unwell, he turned his head and dry-heaved a few times, he said with a chill, "I was scared to death, where did this ugly girl come from, are you sure this is the City Lord's Mansion, what the hell, it's broad daylight, I thought I was in a mass grave."
